New reporting from the Daily Beast reveals how information about Mackenzie has vanished from his Wikipedia page… like lying about voting for an abortion ban and lying about his age on Tinder
Ryan Mackenzie has a long running issue with telling the truth – and now he’s been caught in a failed effort to cover up his record of lies.
New reporting from the Daily Beast reveals that Mackenzie could be trying to hide the truth from PA-07 voters by having his staff wipe information from his Wikipedia page. Daily Beast reports that “details from his career had been polished off the Wikipedia system” by an individual whose username matches the former address of his communications director.
Reminder: Mackenzie is no stranger to lying to Pennsylvanians. During his campaign for Congress, Mackenzie was caught lying about his age on Tinder and about his vote for legislation to ban abortion without exceptions for rape and incest.
DCCC spokesperson Eli Cousin:
“Whether it’s lying to Lehigh Valley voters about voting for an abortion ban without exceptions for rape or incest, lying about his age on Tinder, or having his staff misleadingly edit his Wikipedia page, it’s clear voters can’t trust a word Mackenzie says.”

Daily Beast’s The Swamp: Mystery Over Rep.’s Vanishing Profile
- Republican Rep. Ryan Mackenzie’s memory isn’t always on the money. There was a report that he misremembered his age on his Tinder account, reportedly telling a potential date that he was 29 when he was 37. Now 42, he seems to have misplaced some other awkward stories from his political career. There was his objection to the 2020 election result and a vote for stricter laws on abortion, lowering the age for lawful abortions from 24 weeks to 20, with no exceptions for pregnancies from rape or incest.
- There was always the Pennsylvania congressman’s Wikipedia page if anyone wanted a refresher on his positions. However, there was no sign of these interesting nuggets. […]
- It seems that some details from his career had been polished off the Wikipedia system between May 2024 and March 2025. The people who originally posted the deleted information questioned the editor, who denied any conflict of interest.
- But then one of our growing army of Swamp tipsters noticed something unusual. Ryan’s communications director Arnaud Armstrong once lived in a house numbered 1516 in Allentown, Pennsylvania, according to public records, and the user name of the person changed the Wikipedia was ATown1516.
- What a strange coincidence! We have checked in with Rep. Mackenzie to get his take.
